Digestive support; Protein, fat, and carbohydrate breakdown
Adults who want added digestive support at mealtime or those with high-protein or high-fat meals.
For digestive support, take 1 to 2 capsules immediately before a meal; for between-meal use, take 1 to 2 capsules an hour before or after a meal. Enzyme supplements are often better tolerated with food, and fat-containing meals may pair best with lipase-containing formulas.
Contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, soy, or wheat. Contains no preservatives, or artificial color, flavor, or fragrance.
Protease breaks peptide bonds in dietary proteins, producing smaller peptides and amino acids for easier absorption.
Caution: Take with food for digestive use to reduce stomach discomfort; avoid if you have active gastrointestinal ulcers as proteolytic activity may irritate sensitive tissue.
Amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates like starch into sugars that the body can absorb.
Caution: If you experience gas or bloating, reduce dose and take with meals since rapid carb breakdown can cause digestive discomfort.
Lipase splits dietary fats into fatty acids and glycerol to aid fat digestion and absorption.
Caution: Take with meals containing fat for best tolerance and effect; fat malabsorption symptoms warrant guidance from a health professional.
Protease targets proteins, amylase targets carbohydrates, and lipase targets fats, covering the major macronutrients of a meal. Taken together, they provide broad digestive enzyme activity across different substrates.
Label Warning: Do not use if pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Do not use if you have gastrointestinal disorders such as ulcers. Consult a healthcare professional before use if taking drugs that affect blood coagulation, such as prescription vitamin K, heparin, warfarin (Coumadin), or aspirin.
Who should be cautious: People with a history of gastrointestinal irritation or bleeding may need extra caution due to enzyme activity. Those with pork allergies should avoid porcine-derived enzymes. If using anticoagulants or other blood-thinning agents, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
Many users say the high-potency enzymes helped them feel more comfortable after meals, especially with richer foods.
Capsules are described as easy to swallow and convenient for mealtime use.
A few reviewers reported stomach upset or didn’t notice the desired effect compared to other enzyme products.

Pancreatin is a mixture of pancreatic enzymes that support digestion. Porcine pancreatin, which is similar to human, consists of proteases (to break down protein), amylases (to breakdown carbohydrates) and lipases (to break down fats). Together they aid the body's natural digestion process and may improve nutrient absorption. When taken between meals they act as systematic enzymes, providing soothing comfort to the body. Pancreatin 8X contains eight times the enzyme activity as pancreatin USP.
For Digestive Aid: 1 to 2 capsules immediately before a meal. For Systemic Aid: 1 to 2 capsules an hour before or after a meal.
Gelatin (capsule), microcrystalline cellulose, and magnesium stearate.
Contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, soy or wheat. Contains no preservatives, or artificial color, flavor or fragrance.
